Ideal weight (Devine formula)
—
How this works
The Devine formula (1974) estimates ideal body weight (IBW) in kg from height:
- Male: 50 + 2.3 × (height in inches − 60)
- Female: 45.5 + 2.3 × (height in inches − 60)
This formula was originally derived for medication dosing. It is a rough population-level estimate and does not reflect body composition, muscle mass, or individual health.
Medical disclaimer: "Ideal weight" is a general reference value. A healthy weight is individual — discuss appropriate goals with a healthcare professional.
